Who did you call? We've had squirrels coming in and out of roof for ages but all the exterminators have been worthless

I had squirrels in my rear 2nd floor ceiling in 2015 when I lived in Kingsessing. I called a place in the northern burbs called A Wildlife Pro -- they found the entry point, put a one-way door on it, and the squirrels were gone in a week with no trapping or poison or inhumane treatment of any kind. Then the contractor came back, collected their trap, and sealed the opening permanently. No further problems.

We used the same company and they did a good job on the squirrels living between our vinyl siding and the brick exterior.

Had this in Manayunk. Next Generation Pest Control took care of it for us, they sealed up all possible enty points except one, and then put a one-way door over that last entry point. Once they were gone they patched everything up. Great experience.

We used them last year and they were not helpful. They missed points of entry so the problem didn't go away.

Oh that’s strange because the experience I had with them was probably the best I’d ever had with a contractor, period. Always on time, communicated clearly and did the job well. Came back multiple times to shore up spots they may have missed.

Aerosmith. If you get squirrels in your attic, put a speaker up there and play Aerosmith. Give them a couple of hours to move out and take any babies they might have then block the hole(s) they were coming in. We nailed a cookie sheet over the hole in roof until we could get it fixed for real.
